It's another title for Johnny Nelson as the Team Five cue man hit 82.00% this season to finish ahead of Dean McDonagh (St Comgalls) 76.56% and Chris Carson (Q.Tips) 73.02%. It's Johnny's fifth win in the last seven seasons, a great showing indeed. But he was pushed all the way by the ever consistent Dean McDonagh and attack minded Chris Carson. Can Nelson make it a double hat trick of successes next season ?
